We have them moved, but another pair comes to take their place. Funny thing though, this year the house was active so I called to have it taken out. By the time he got there a week later the baever was gone. It's the first time in 18 years there hasn't been a beaver living there, or in the pond just above.Yup, taking out the dam is just part of the problem. If you don't remove the critters, you will always have problems.
